stormdogI'd seen the first poem on this page before, but despite how much I liked it, I never followed up and looked for more information about its writer. A mention on a Facebook friend's page brought her to mind. I like just about everything she's written (or at least everything on this page) a lot more than I've liked new poetry in a long time.

In fact, it makes me feel bad to have seen her work shared around without attribution, and without seeking it. Everybody deserves credit for their words. And while this is no more true for a master poet than it is for an academic, a novelist, or a child writing zir first stories, reading something that moves me in this way makes me more conscious of that importance.
